the stain

Seconded

How d'you like the hot thrill of the stain up you? This bidding on players malarkey is a bit of a trial. Sukkaz keep outbidding me. :mad:

Be afraid. I just played my first game and won comfortably. Amon Duul III will walk this league. See you at Stain Road.

No, but I don't drive and I'm poor.

As a viewer who knows next to sod all about post-modern film theory, I thought it was both exciting and involving, on top of being clever. I'm fairly easy to please though.

S'alright, i looked it up. Glasgow, Sheffield then two dates in London. All too far away...

Where else are they playing?

The Brothers Grimm - Entertaining Gilliam romp. The Brothers are portrayed as a pair of confidence tricksters, strolling round Europe charging money for killing trolls and witches. Inevitably thay come up against some real life fairy tale magic and dramatic madness ensues. It manages to handle being scary and slapstick, but is kind of let down by a couple of 'jarjar binks' characters that the plot didn't really call for. And the SFX are in many places dreadful. But it hits in enough of the right places to make it worth a go.

The Scottish one would be easy... Fannies Belle & Sebastian Cocteaus Mogwai F-u-ckiiiing loads of them. Only problem with this is when you come to someone like MBV, who come from different countries. Miscegenating bastards.

I think it should be split by home nation. My favourite Welsh bands/artists... Super Furry Animals Gorky's John Cale er... Man? This isn't going to work.

Quite funny, IMO. It's childish knob gags of course, but I'm tickled by knobs. We booked him to play a little while ago. My favourite one was 'Wanqing Over Pornographic Polaroid of an Ex-Girlfriend Who Died'.

ERM...:confused:

Kickboxer and Blood Sport are the best ones. I liked the way he could be so acrobatic in a full-length overcoat. I just watched This Girl's Life. Well... I watched about half of it. Thouroughly modern woman juggles caring for her father, who has Parkinson's, with being a porn star. I'd tell you more but there's no point. The most boring film about ****ging since 9 Songs.

Ned's Atomic Dustbin

I've been trying, believe me, but i just can't seem to snap it into focus...

The Farm

I don't mind Lowe. There, I've said it.

Today I've been humming: Human League - Human Bee Gees - You Win Again

There are a lot more nuddie bits than required. I couldn't work out if this was down to the director's art-house roots or his mainstream fanny-fests, but no complaints from this viewer. It's exciting right to the end but sometimes lacks a bit in character depth, particularly the Nazis. And it uses that cheesy Saving Private Ryan style 'memories of those we've lost' bookend device. You'll see a lot worse films though; it's a better war film than for example the aforementioned Spielberg bore-a-thon.

Black Book - Pretty decent Serious film by Paul Verhoeven (guaranteed tits!) about Nazi occupied Netherlands. Works well on a spy/resistance intrigue level, although it's hard to speak for its realism when he occasionally reverts to cartoon villain type. Well worth a watch though.

Sho'nuff. It was a proper ding dong and worth every minute of lost sleep.

Smashing stuff. Do you read the Echo website and then go out in the street and ridicule paperboys?
